• Every one is familiar with the term debt, where people owe an amount of money or some other form of payment for something they have already received. All have a debt to our fellow man as well as to God. Just as a person is obligated to pay the bank back for the money borrowed to pay for a home or vehicle, in the same way people are personally responsible to God for all He has given them. God gives everyone a choice, pay the debt or accept the payment made by Jesus Christ.
